Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2018015232A1] The invention relates to a filling level indicator (1) for determining a filling level in a tank, comprising a resistor network (3), a contact element (5, 11) and a magnetic element, wherein the contact element (5, 11) is arranged at a distance to the resistor network (3) and the magnetic element can be moved relative to the resistor network (3) and the contact element (5, 11), wherein the contact element (5, 11) has a contact region (6, 14) which can be deflected by the magnetic element, wherein an electrically conductive connection can be established between the contact region (6, 14) and the resistor network (3) by means of a deflection of the contact region (6, 14), wherein the contact region (6, 14) is formed by a flat band-type element, which can be partially deflected by the magnetic force of the magnetic element, wherein the contact region (6, 14) has at least two sections (7, 8, 12, 13) arranged next to one another and at a distance to one another.
